At the coming of the violets and springs’ beautiful season our west ern and northern guests have and are departing. Hotels further south have closed and the wayside inns, where these people break their passage, have felt the bene fits of their brief patronage. Dal ton has enjoyed, in a limited de gree, their society and formed a most pleasant acquaintence with them through the agency of Hotel Dalton and its splendid manage ment. Whatever benefit Dalton has derived, social or pecuniary, is due entirely to this hotel and if, by any means, Dalton’s advantage as a summer and winter resort could be placed before these tourists it would be of incalculable value to almost every permanent citizen of whatever sphere. Certainly now that we are upon the eve of the summer season some sort of an effort should be made to attract the tourists from further south to Dalton. It has been, and perhaps will be again, argued that the Hotel Dalton is the one most benefitted and hence most directly interested. The Citizen denies this. The Hotel Dalton and other inn and boarding house keepers make less in proportion to capital and time invested than any one of the other beneficiaries, such as livery men, merchants and others. Surely Dalton ought to and could have 500 instead of a half hundred summer visitors as heretofore and there should be some effort made to get them. A newspaper here absolutely gets no benefit—not a five cent piece—but The Citizen has unselfishly sung Dalton’s praise always and that of Hotel Dalton. Should Allen Candler be elected governor, would he resign his posi tion as president of the Gaines ville and Jefferson and Southern railroad, which he held on to all the time when he was receiving a salary as Secretary of State, or would he attempt to act for State and the railroads at the same time? —Atlanta Commercial. . I clip the above from the Dal ton Citizen and desire to state that. The Citizen editor made a mistake in its credit—as the At lanta Commercial, unlike The Citizen, is edited by a man who believed Colonel Candler, who in a speech at the opening of his campaign stated that he had re signed the presidency of the rail road above mentioned many years ago. Will The Citizen correct the above statement in its next issue? We shall see.—Rome Hustler. Certainly, Brother Byrd; we have no means at present to deter mine if we were right or wrong, but we’ll bet the ginger cakes we are right. this term of court. The tempta tion to make a little ready cash in this way seems to be growing. Five weeks ago today The Citizen said there would be no war. Nit, Pauline; Jonah would not have made a good secretary of the Navy, but a good secretary of the Interior. of THE PLOUQHBOY CANDIDATE. The One Eyed Ploughboy of Pigeon Roost, the most eager can didate for the democratic nomina tion for governor in Georgia, is showing great talents on the stump. He says, modestly but conclusively, that he is “ just the age when Calhoun, Webster and Clay had reached the prime of their usefulness,” makes damnable faces at the Republican “ana conda,” and informs his prosperous audiences, much to their surprise, that “the fires in our factories have gone out,” and that “ want stalks abroad in our land.” It is clear that the One Eyed Plough- boy of Pigeon Roost is too prec ious to be nominated for governor. He is a museum piece.—New York Sun. Read the announcement Hon. Watt Harris elsewhere in this issue. It is full of good dem ocratic doctrine. Read it thought fully and then be on the winning side by casting your vote for him. The hospital edition of the Rome Georgian of thirty-six pages printed on chrome yellow came to The Citizen sanctum this week. It’s the only yellow journal that we have seen to our notion. The corner stone of Democracy is the rule of the majority. The action of the executive committee was therefore undemocratic, for it makes it possible for Floyd county to nominate a congressman by a minority vote. The Citizen is indebted to Senator Clay for a copy of the presidents messages on the Cu ban situation, containing the re port of the Maine Inquiry Court, and photographs of the parts of the wrecked vessel. JUDOE POE TO POPULISTS. The Spring Festival edition of the Chattanooga Evening News was a mammoth one and reflects great credit upon that admirable paper. Dalton has a page write up and it created a fine opinion here of the excellency of The News. The Cuban version now shall be Hang Gen. Weyler on a sour apple tree. Belligerent Berner is still in the field. The fact that all the congres sional candidates except Mr. Mad dox are opposed to the action of the Congressional Committee would seem singular were it not for another fact, namely, the ad vantage of Floyd county and in cidentally Mr. Maadox himself hopes to derive from the scheme. Whitfield will give Harris a good majority. Watt The strawberry box comes to us built on the same old plan. A CORRECTION. The Citizen above all things desires to be fair and truthful. Last week we stated that Col. Candler’s home county had set apart July 15th to hold a primary and it was calculated to lead read- to believe it referred to the The rainy season for “Uncle Allen will begin June 6th. The road to success has few i dismounting blocks along the way ers to the gubernatorial primary. The primary over there in July is for county officers, and June 6th for governor. The reason given for putting off the county primary was that “June 6th was too early for the farmers,” as they would be too busy. This statement mislead us, and we make the correction at our first opportunity. But we now think it very strange that they put it off “ until July to give the farmer a chance.” We conclude from this the farmer will not vote on June 6th, but the town of Gainesville will, and of course should, vote for Col. Candler. May we ask was the executive committee over there afraid the farmer would vote against Col. Candler? OUR CHEESE. There is no excuse why the region round about Dalton should not be the producing center of the south in cheese making. We im port cheese from abroad. Our Roquefort, Brie, Neufchatel, d’lsigny, Bricquebec and Camem- bert comes from France ; Sweitzer from Switzerland ; Limburg from Germany; Edam from Holland; Gorgonzola and Parmesan from Italy. Everyone who knows any- thing about cheese making and But few would be killed by the accidental discharge of their duty It wouldn’t be called a “ duck of a bonnet” unless it was the swim.” in The fellow with false teeth and thinketh himself great shakes, should take heed lest he sneeze. Pacifico Candler has not the braveness to meet the boys on the slump. Par.y harmony indeed! It is not the part of wisdom or discression to drop an insinuation where a bigger fellow is likely to pick it up. An exchange says “some people show more feeling than touch”— never been to a church fair and got touched we guess. If the candidates for governor are to be believed that each will be elected that office will certain ly have to understand the rule of three. The recommendation of the Grand Jury that the Lukens’ fish ponds be drained, is one that meets the approval of every citi zen of Dalton. The bifurcated habiliments known as “bloomers” are so called because a woman of that name first braved public opinion by ap pearing in such apparel. The number of whiskey selling cases have been unusually large The next congressman from the Seventh District will be Hon. Watt Harris, of Cartersville, one of Georgia’s most brilliant law yers and one of her truest demo crats. The disgust of the mass of voters will react against Mr. Mad dox and his scheme and bury him beneath the proverbial avalanche of votes. AilONG OUR EXCHANGES. Hon. O. N. Starr, of Gordon county, one of the prominent members of the upper house in the last legislature, is being strongly urged to accept the secretaryship of the senate, to succeed Col. Bill Clifton. So Col. Candler thinks the rail road commission has outlived its usefulness and ought to be abolish ed. What an unnatural father !— Griffin News.

Constitution Bureau, Brown House, Macon, Ga„ April 14.— (Special.)—Judge William A. Poe, of Macon, is one of the lead- ing populists of Bibb county. He is a lawyer by profession, a son of the late Washington Poe, who was one of Macon’s most eminent lawyers and esteemed citizens. Judge Poe thinks the populists should uot put out a state ticket this year, and his views and rea sons are clear and interesting. “I speak not only for myself, but for the conservative element of the populist party,” said Judge Poe, “when I say that the opinion is that we should not have a state ticket this year. “Mr. Watson was the head and front of the party in this state and as strong as any man in the Unit ed States, and has declined to lead the party in what he recog nizes is a hopeless fight this year. It is a hopeless fight. We cannot win. Why then split the white vote of the state. Let us get to gether again. “We have really no great differ ences. The populists are willing to support the democratic ticket and the nominees in both the counties and the state. But in order to get them to do so the democrats should avoid hidebound rules affecting the post. Take off the rules that will prohibit the populists from voting in the pri maries and they will vote and will support the democratic nom inees at the ballot box. “It is folly to think that a voter j who takes part in the primaries will not support the ticket. The majority of men who vote are honorable men. When a man votes in the primary he is honor bound to support the nominee. Now I say that if the populists are allowed to vote in the primar ies they will support the demo cratic ticket very generally throughout the state. “I say these things advisedly and wish‘the utmost good faith, believing that I speak for the best part of the party. I feel deeply on the subject just at this time and I hope and believe that the party will have no ticket in the field this year, and if they do, do not believe that the ticket would receive the support of the party at this time. If the demo crats wish to hold out the hand of good fellowship to the white vo ters of this state who have differ ed from them in politics but are very close to them now in their opinions and, in fact, with them entirely on the main points of the platform, both state and national, now is the time for them to do it and so strengthen the party and unite the white people. “I feel deeply on the subject because this is a campaign year and war is upon us. We people of the south must stand together. Georgians—white Georgians cannot afford to be squabling over small things in politics at such a time, when every man should stand shoulder to shoulder with his neighbor. “I feel in this that I am speak ing for the best element of the populist party. Here in Bibb, if the populists are allowed to vote in the primaries the great maior- ity of them will stand by the dem ocratic ticket and we will end the war in politics to stand together for our country, its honor and the safety of those who are near and dear to us.” AN OPEN LETTER To MOTHERS.
